WSUS (Windows Server Update Services)  is a local copy of Windows Update/Microsoft Update that allows you to control what gets “approved” for installation on the PCs that report to it.  Why would you want to do this at home you may ask?  Well, if you want to know that your PCs are being kept up to date on all Microsoft patches, or even block certain patches until you want them (IE7 for example), then this can all be achieved with WSUS.

Last year, Windows Small Business Server MVP, Kevin Royalty, wrote up a full walkthrough to install and configure WSUS for Windows Home Server.

Kevin has recently updated this guide, which is now available over on the WGS Wiki. Check it out!
